I am so glad you guys are back! I really enjoy your podcast. I have a two year old, but I am planning on homeschooling her. I have to admit I am a little overwhelmed with all the different homeschooling methods, curriculum and just explaining to people why my daughter won’t be attending preschool. I’ve been listening to all your podcast to help me out. Thank you for all your great information!

I discovered your podcast a few months ago and I’ve just finished binging my way through them all. Listening to your podcast was like getting into an amazing new book series. Yes, the resources you provided were fantastic and I’ve switched up many aspects of how I want to homeschool based on various episodes. I enjoyed the topics, the books, the links and the interviews. But my hands down favorite part of the show was the chit chat at the beginning. I feel like through these segments, I was there throughout years of your lives, invested in your struggles and celebrating in your successes. It was like an educational drama, and I’ve never before felt so invested in the lives of complete strangers that weren’t fictional characters in a book series or TV show. Now that I’ve caught completely up, I have that vague lost feeling you get when you’re current on a fantastic book series or show on Netflix. What do I do with these hours that were heretofore spent listening to your show? (My husband is tiring of hearing me complain about how inferior every other podcast I’ve tried in the past week has been.) And I know that even if you started posting with a regularity not seen since your earliest days (weekly!), it still wouldn’t be the same because I can’t really binge on that. So I’m not going to beg you to post more often. (Although please do check in periodically! At this point, you feel like good friends and I want to occasionally hear how you are and what’s new.) I just want to express my sincere appreciation for what you have put out there and shared with the world. You gave me a real (occasionally raw) picture of what it is to be a homeschooling parent. Sharing both the good and the bad has been inspirational. You two matter and what you’ve done matters. Thank you.

Wow. That is so amazing to read! I feel guilty almost daily for not finding the time to produce episodes regularly again…but my life is still pretty crazy and I need to focus on getting things done that will actually make my family money right now. BUT I don’t plan to give up this podcast, and I know Beckie doesn’t either. I really do want to find a way to produce more regularly again. Probably never will be weekly again. But even if we can just get going monthly again, I think that would be terrific! We do have a schedule of interviews we want to get going, and I just need to get my butt in gear to plan them.
